Sad to add my voice to the long list of people who haven't been paid by @RollingStoneUK – still waiting for payment for 3 articles from July-Oct '23. No doubt they've got their own issues, but ghosting so many freelancers makes it look like non-payment is official policy. Avoid.

I spent all of March in hospital, much of it in Kafka’s mysterious, troubled, frustrated and fascinating company. Here’s my review of his unexpurgated Diaries theguardian.com/books/2024/apr…
This bird looks like it’s about to ask you the world’s hardest riddle.
In her review of 1984 @FionaSturges of The Guardian calls it ‘a dark delight.’ But my favourite thing is the reference to Winston and Julia’s ‘alfresco fun… best heard via the privacy of headphones’, which is beautifully doubleplusflirty #1984xAudible theguardian.com/books/2024/apr…
So many professional music reviews that focus so much on lyrics and not at all on music — and I get it, I know shit about music, and even if you don’t, it’s harder to parse and describe. But tell me what the songs sound like, not just what they’re supposedly about.
If you haven’t listened yet @WritersOnFilm1 has a new episode which is one for the ages. Ed Zwick talks about forty years in Hollywood working with the best of the best, the thrill of Denzel Washington; the problems with Broderick and more podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/wri…
Yesterday, I mentioned that there's a point during the intro of 'The Full Horror' extended mix of Suburbia on Pet Shop Boys' Disco LP where it sounds like it's about to turn into Bon Jovi's Livin' On A Prayer. And then, because @DJYodaUK is a genius, this happened...
@petepaphides Tis done, attached. Anyway, onwards and upwards...
There's a moment in the long version of Suburbia by Pet Shop Boys on the Disco album where it sounds as though it's about to turn into Bon Jovi's Living On A Prayer. Sometimes I wish I could enter that portal.
On the Daft Punk “brand”/legacy. Lots of interesting ideas on all that here. And mine
returning to my specialist subject of @daftpunk, I wrote for @DJmag about Daft Punk as brand and the limits thereof. How long can a brand outlive a band? What are the limits to Daft Punk’s prolific post-split reign? Will we ever get sick of the robots? djmag.com/features/daft-…
